I had the pleasure of playing with Lorx and his friends for the first time just now. Mostly cool group, pretty conservative in terms of playstyle, and a little strange in priority, but they seem to know how to do dem mind games. Although it wasn't cool that he never mentioned they were in Vent.
Also went on a 6 kill spree with Soraka early game. It... just happened that way. lulz xD
In the case of Soraka, she can be almost out of base indefinitely for whatever reason. I've seriously considered it a couple times just so I don't find myself going "oh wait I'm out of wards". Hell, the first time I went back in the game I just played with Lorx as Soraka, I had almost 4k spare gold xD Unspent gold is wasted potential in getting shyt done.
In terms of math... you're better off getting a GP5 item and sitting on it. A Lantern produces a 75 gold ward every 3 minutes, while in that same time span, Philosopher's Stone produces 90 gold.
The tradeoff of occupying your last slot with Wriggles is that you can only place one ward in one spot every three minutes. If you lose that ward before then, tough luck. I'd rather have an empty slot for wards if your job is to be the ward monkey, as your income generally tends to be enough to keep them coming in to a reasonable amount. You definitely can't sustain wards + oracle's if you are repeatedly dying though.
I tend not to buy Wriggle's if it's mid game or later. I could be wrong in doing this, but usually I get Wriggle's on Soraka if I find myself having to hold the tower for long periods of time. Which is to say, something's wrong if that happens.

What happens if a support gets a Wriggle's?

Dunno, the cost of the Wriggles is worth it by wards alone if the game lasts (1600/75= ) 21 wards long, so any game that goes on over an hour past when you buy it.
